Thanks for the info. I think I've got it set up correctly. (after I ran smbpasswd -a <username>)
Now that I've got it configured, I'm going to set it up in his office and see if I can log in to the domain. One thing... I noticed that smbd and nmbd are not running at boot up. How would I go about setting that up? Best regards, Kendall Whitlatch mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Friday, August 15, 2003, 8:51:42 AM, you wrote: JW> Hello.
